Completely correct. The OSPF area #s are the only part that matters. The PID/area # connection is just how Cisco chose to implement their OSPF daemon. Has no bearing on any other implementation -- the Juniper/Wellfleet/Proteon/IBM/Nortel/DEC/Linux implementations have no such connection between area # and OSPF process ids. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
